Traditional video streaming does not always work optimally, especially in mobile environments such as moving vehicles. There can be lapses in video transmission or delays due to changing network conditions. For use cases such as public safety, where always-on video footage is needed to coordinate response activities between first responders, command staff, medical professionals, and field operations personnel, any loss of video is unacceptable. Cradlepoint and NSION provide a robust and field-tested solution that ensures reliable, always-on video footage for fixed and mobile environments. A Cradlepoint wireless, cellular-enabled router with the NSION NSC IoT client enables video to be streamed from, for example, your dash cam or other vehicle camera feeds over LTE or 5G networks. NSC monitors the network and adjusts the broadcasted data dynamically to the available bandwidth, which guarantees that you always get real-time footage.

Joint Solution Value
NSION NSC3 integrated in Cradlepoint routers enables real-time video steaming from your office or moving vehicle. It provides a complete solution — a robust router with a real-time video transmission engine — that eliminates the need to install additional equipment to handle the data transmission. The in-vehicle use case comprises a Cradlepoint R1900 Series 5G Ruggedized Router and the NSION NSC IoT client, that can be quickly and easily installed via NetCloud Manager. The NSC IoT client has a simple UI that allows you to map the cameras connected to the Cradlepoint router to start streaming to the NSC3 situational awareness platform.
